OK, just a reminder I do not own the characters except the one's I create. Thanks for the people who have been reviewing! If I don't do your suggestions or still can improve my writing(which I always can) please tell me what I'm doing wrong! Some people wonder if I ride horses, yes I do. I own one horse named Evie who is a Trakehner/TB and we do dressage together and will be showing in it this summer. All right back to the story…
Dom caught Kel as she started to fall. He quickly picked her up surprised by how light she was. He walked through the courtyard squinting his eyes from the lack of light as he tried not to step on anything left around. He took her inside as Neal was starting to panic and yelling at Dom to put her down.
"Neal, quite! I'm taking her to her rooms!" Dom snapped.
Neal was taken back by Dom's outburst of emotion. Does Dom have a soft spot for Kel? Or maybe he likes her! Neal smiled at that thought. Dom and Kel would go well together, both were quite and usually didn't yell unless you truly got on their nerves. Neal didn't notice he was in Kel's room until he bumped into the door that Dom shut in his face. Neal quickly used some of his gift making the color that was creeping into his nose vanish.
He opened the door and went over to Kel where Dom had laid her on the bed. He then started using his gift searching for whatever made Kel faint.
As Neal used his gift to try to help Kel, Dom took a seat in one of the chairs in the room. He looked around and studied the room. It was plain and simple like Kel and yet it was interesting at the same time. The bed was neatly made and so was Tobe's sleeping pallet. Tobe had thrown a few clothes on the ground making a circle around his pallet. Kel had placed her clothes in the dresser making her side of the room neater then Tobe's side. He ran his fingers through his hair and tried not to think about what just happened. Did Kel really faint? Did I just catch her and take her back to her bedroom! This is like a knight saving his lady except I'm a sergeant and well Kel's the knight but…
Neal punched him lightly on the shoulder breaking off Dom's train of thought.
"Cousin come on, Kel needs to rest let's go." Neal urged Dom.
"All right, I'm coming just hold on I'll be right out." Dom said.
Neal left the room and wondered why Dom would want to stay behind. Kel was unconscious anyway so not like they would be having a conversation. He started heading downstairs to tell Yuki and Alanna that they could go and see Kel now.
Dom, now left alone in Kel's room walked around and looked at the different things in her room, trying to sort out his thoughts. He walked around until he ended up at Kel's bed. He looked down at her. She looks so peaceful. I don't think she realizes how beautiful she is. Dom startled himself as he bent down and brushed his lips against Kel's check. The door started to open and Dom jumped away from Kel like a frightened rabbit scared to be caught by the hounds as he looked to see who was coming in. It was Yuki and Alanna.
"Dom what are you still doing in here?" Alanna asked her purple eyes filled with curiosity.
"Oh…well…when…"Dom tried to think of a good excuse hoping Alanna and Yuki wouldn't notice the pause. Unfortunately for Dom both Alanna and Yuki noticed the pause. They both looked at each other with a question on their faces. They turned back to Dom pretending not to notice.
"Oh…um…Neal kicked me out of the room when he was healing" Dom lied starting to walk toward the door hoping he could escape. The last thing Dom wanted Alanna and Yuki to know is that he had a crush on Kel…ok maybe more then a crush.
Alanna and Yuki let him escape and pretended to accept his excuse.
"So what do you think of Sergeant Domitan's excuse Yuki?" Alanna asked.
" I think it was a lie. Neal usually doesn't care if people are in the room or not while he heals." Yuki replied.
"Yuki did you notice that a blush was creeping into Dom's face as we entered. I don't know but I think something's up with Dom."
"I do to." The Yamini lady agreed. "I've never seen Dom blush now that I think about it.
"Well let's check on Kel and see if she is awake yet and then lets find your fiancé and ask him a few questions."
Yuki looked at Alanna and saw mischief play among her purple eyes. Yuki opened up her fan to hide the grin that was spreading across her face.
This was going to get interesting Yuki thought!
